Ikea Fabric? by BEI Design

New pictures of my wedding sewing (cross-posted) by BEI Design
A question on the SewCouture list prompted me to get some additional pictures of my work on DD's wedding gown. Her question was about the waist stay, and It's easier to *show* than to *tell*. So here you go: http://home.comcast.net/~beidesigns/wsb/index.html (Sorry about the additional URL, one...

Highland Dance"Heather" pattern [cross posted] by BEI Design

Fitting nightmare by BEI Design
I am currently fitting a gal whose high bust measurement is 40.5", bust 48.5", waist 40", and hip 43", back to waist 17.75". That's not a mistake, her hips are only _three_ inches larger than her waist. No fanny, at all! She was _very_ surprised to learn that her right arm, shoulder to wrist is...

Anyone know what the bust-waist-hip _measurements_ of a "size 25" vintage Sears (or Sears-Simpson) adjustable dress form would be? I don't want to purchase it if it is too far off. TIA -- Beverly ---to reply, delete no spam and .invalid---

My Entries in the Oregon State Fair by BEI Design

Humidity on steroids by BEI Design[_3_]

Wedding Pictures by BEIDesign
I handed my digital camera off to one of the guests, and of course she wasn't very familiar with it so some of the pictures are a little fuzzy. However, here are the first pictures from the wedding: http://home.comcast.net/~ickesbe/wsb/index.html Enjoy! -- Beverly

ladies dress pants by Belinda Alene
Please help decide a discussion between my daughter and me. My training is that ladies dress pants zip on the side or down the back. Her claim is that modern styles include front zip with a fly styles for ladies dress pants. This is not really a big deal. The daughter is old enough to make her...

Trouble hemming kids' pants by Belindi
Well I finally broke down and bought a sewing machine. My kid, although fitting into 18 month pants for his waist, can't fit the pants for the length. So I bought the machine in order to hem his pants. Well the trouble is that the opening at the hem is narrower than the swing arm so I can't...
